Chapter 551 It's Too Late
The night before dawn.

If you can stand high in the sky, you can see that there are stars dotted on the sea, and the sea outside the mouth of the Sancha River is covered with these stars.

These stars are the ships responsible for the transportation. The huge number of transportation fleets almost cover the entire sea.

As the night is about to leave, the place gradually becomes lively, and the smoke from the kitchen is always the first to rise.The lively chant also began to rise, and the ships transporting supplies and equipment began to get busy one after another.

On the shore of the estuary, some simple fortifications have been built, including ditches, horses, fences, archery towers, and some are still building earthen walls. In short, a fortification that has begun to take shape has taken shape.

The sky gradually brightened, the smoke from the cooking became thicker, and the overcooked steam surrounded the huge fortification.

After a while, the smoke finally stopped, and the soldiers, craftsmen, and peasants who had eaten breakfast began to busy themselves with their own affairs.

A team of about [-] sturdy cavalry, like a giant dragon, rushed out of the fortification, bringing smoke and dust along the way.

……

Songshan Fort.

The outside of Songshan Fort today can be described as a mess. There are tunnels everywhere, and the originally flat ground has been dug in a mess and devastated. Due to the war, the land that should have been green is now bare. Occasionally, a touch of green grows tenaciously in these terrible scars.

"What day is today?" Huang Taiji put down the binoculars, still looking at the smoky Songshan Fort, and asked, although Dajin was fighting around Songshan Fort now, there was no trace of joy on Huang Taiji's face.

"It's been about twenty days since I returned to Dahan." Fan Wencheng said.

"Twenty days? What's wrong with Emperor Ming, should he send reinforcements?" Huang Taiji asked.

"Back to Dahan, I guess it's almost there. According to the news here, it will take three or four days at most to reach the capital of the Ming Dynasty. The Emperor Ming will discuss it with the ministers. It may take a day or two at the earliest, and it may take five or six days at the worst." After the results are out, and the troops are dispatched after the results are out, it is also estimated that it will take ten and a half months to pass the test. Calculated in this way, it is time for Emperor Ming's rescuers to arrive, which will be about a few days, unless tomorrow The emperor does not intend to save Songshan Fort." Fan Wencheng tried his best to calculate the date of the Ming Dynasty's troops, from the time when the Ming Dynasty got Songshan Fort and was attacked, to the Ming Dynasty's monarchs and ministers discussing, and then to the transfer of troops to leave the customs, basically the Ming Dynasty sent troops. The routines and time estimates are quite accurate.

"Well, what Xiandou said is right, it's time to arrive. If it doesn't come, Ben Khan will have to take down Songshan Fort. If Songshan Fort is taken down by accident, this game will not be able to continue." Speaking of this, some smiles appeared on Huang Taiji's face. In this smile, there was a strong self-confidence. Although this Songshan Fort was a brick city, there were elites stationed there, but after all, it had been besieged for more than half a year. There are more than ten times as many people defending the city. If you say that a strong attack regardless of damage can indeed be captured, it only depends on how much damage you can bear.

"Khan is right, why don't you relax a little bit and stop attacking so tightly? If it is really captured, it will not be able to attract reinforcements from the Ming Dynasty." Fan Wencheng said again, now, this Songshan The fort is a bait, luring the Ming Dynasty to "moths to the fire". If the fire is gone, the moths will definitely not be attracted. Therefore, even if the fire is dying, it may be extinguished at any time, but it cannot be true Let him go out.

"Well, it makes sense, come here!... Pass it on, don't be too hard on the siege, keep your strength, and wait for the reinforcements from the Ming Dynasty to come, so that you can fight the reinforcements." Huang Taiji said with some confidence, although the city can He won, but he didn't want to fight this loss. If there was a better way, he wouldn't fight it.

"Cha!" A servant agreed and sent another order.

Huang Taiji still picked up the binoculars and observed Songshan Fort again. Through continuous observation of the situation of the defenders of Songshan Fort, Huang Taiji found out a lot of ways to restrain the Ming Dynasty. Using it in actual combat, it did have some effect, and the casualties were reduced. Quite a few, Huang Taiji had to observe Songshan Fort on time every day.

A few horsemen and horses came running from a distance, and ran towards Huang Taiji quickly.

"Report!..." Those riders, drenched in sweat, shouted loudly from afar.

Huang Taiji put down the binoculars, and the self-confidence he had just now disappeared without a trace, leaving only coldness.

"How?" Huang Taiji asked.

"Return to the master, there is no news... I'm afraid it will be more or less ominous..." The sweaty knights jumped off their horses and quickly answered Huang Taiji's words. They said while lowering their heads. Good news. For a long time, the Tanmas on the east, south, and west sides of Songshan Castle have been fighting fiercely with the Tanmas of the Ming Dynasty. Missing Tanmas are common, and it is not surprising. But Tanmas in the north are generally fine. God, there has been no news from Tanma in the north for several times.

"...This Yuan barbarian is not paying attention to Ben Khan more and more..." Huang Taiji rushed from the soles of his feet to the top of his head with a rage, his face was terribly dark.Yuan Chonghuan has been trying to get him to visit the horse all the time, which made him express the wrong feelings and wrong intentions all the time. He always thought that Yuan Chonghuan was the rescuer of the Ming Dynasty, so he didn't take any action on Songshan Fort. He didn't know until several months after the siege. Yuan Chonghuan, that savage, did some shameless things, dispatched thousands, even tens of thousands of horses, and only wanted him to ride a few dozen horses to explore the horses. He was not a reinforcement at all.

Yuan Chonghuan originally had some bottom line, that is, there is basically no movement in the north, because the north of Songshan Fort is the only way to connect Shengjing, and it has always been smooth. Even if there are conflicts, it is much less than the south and west. On the next day, something unexpected happened. Huang Taiji hadn't heard from Shengjing for several days, and none of the scouts he sent out had heard from him.

This made Huang Taiji very annoyed, a feeling of being veiled and hoodwinked was also mixed with the hostility, rushing from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, which made Huang Taiji feel bad, and wished he could eat Yuan Chonghuan alive.

Yuan Chongyuan is not a reinforcement, but his savage fighting style has gradually shown its effect. Now, Huang Taiji's news about the south has become more and more vague, and he is even uncertain about the reinforcements from the Ming Dynasty. It even depends on guessing to be sure, and now even the news of Shengjing has been blocked by him.

"...Where did you come back from? Have you checked those places?" Huang Taiji was annoyed, but his brain was not burnt out, and he still asked carefully about Tanma's situation.

"Back to the master, the servants have arrived at Dujiatun, Panshan Station..." Tan Ma quickly replied.

Huang Taiji's face became more cloudy and uncertain. Dujiatun and Panshan Station are quite far away from Jinzhou. If Yuan Chonghuan dares to send his troops to such a far place, he is not afraid that he will not be able to return home?blocked?

Huang Taiji waved his hand and told those scouts to rest.

"Xiandou, tell me what's going on." Huang Taiji only felt that his vision was foggy, he couldn't see many things clearly, and his thinking felt jerky and sluggish. Huang Taiji felt quite upset.

"Hui Dahan, I'm afraid Yuan Manzi couldn't do it. Yuan Manzi can't stretch his hands that long. I guess it's the rewards..." Fan Wencheng said after thinking for a while.He also despised Yuan Chonghuan's shameless fighting style at first, thinking that the Ming Dynasty sent such a person who was greedy for life and afraid of death, and even fought by relying on bullying the few, he was really blind, but now, Fan Wencheng is getting more and more I can feel the power of this style of play, that is, without the scouting, the understanding of the battlefield is becoming more and more blurred, what the opponent is doing, how the opponent is making a move, he doesn't know, and Fan Wencheng is getting more and more confused. I feel the pressure of Yuan Chonghuan's style of play.

"Bounty hunter?" Huang Taiji turned around and asked.The eyes are cloudy and cloudy.On the vast coastline of the Ming Dynasty, with the convenience of ships, countless bounty hunters were scattered to harass him. Although these people's strength is not very good, they are still a lingering trouble.

"...Can they have such a great ability?" Huang Taiji asked.

"Back to Dahan, this... I guess, there is something strange, but unfortunately, the news from Nanming is becoming more and more vague now, and the news from the sea is getting less and less..., Hui Dahan, the civil servant just feels that this must be true. There has been a huge change... Unfortunately, I don't know what it is specifically, but the civil servants are sure that it must be a major event..." Fan Wencheng's mind was running rapidly, and after thinking for a while, he seemed to have an answer.

"What's the big deal?" Huang Taiji asked, this is indeed a dangerous signal, even the road to Shengjing has been cut off, and if it is more serious, the back road has been cut off.

"Khan, look quickly..." A guard next to him seemed to have seen something surprising, and quickly reminded his own Khan, as if the situation was too frightening.

Huang Taiji turned his head and looked, his eyes were round.Quickly picked up the binoculars to observe carefully, as the observation became more and more careful, Huang Taiji's complexion became worse and worse.

A few sweaty knights galloped over on horseback. Behind their horses, without exception, they all led a few horses. On these horses, except for a few wounds in tattered clothes, there was nothing left. It was full of corpses, and it was extremely rare for so many corpses to be carried back.

"Report!..." A leading knight rushed over as fast as he could, as if he had exhausted his strength. Even though he wanted to shout louder, the shouts were not loud enough.

"What's going on?" Huang Taiji asked with an ugly expression, looking at the leading knight, and at the wounded and dead bodies behind him.

"Returning to the master, the servant found out the news that the Han people have landed on the other side of the Sancha River. There are tens of thousands of horses. It is said that the leader is a scholar from the Ming Dynasty, who seems to be called Sun Chengzong..." This leading knight may be real. The most important thing is that his strength is exhausted. Although the news reported is very important, he is powerless.

"What?" Like a thunderbolt from the blue, Huang Taiji only felt that the sky was dark and the earth was dark. The Ming Dynasty actually landed on the Sancha River. If it was connected with the disappearance of his northern spies, it would have been several days... This news is really terrible. up.

Fan Wencheng also felt as if he had been hit by a bolt from the blue, his eyes turned black from the shock, the Ming Dynasty did not come to Songshan Fort, but landed on the bank of the Sancha River, with tens of thousands of horses, the great scholar Sun Chengzong, this is the reinforcements of the Ming Dynasty!But why go to the Sancha River?Fan Wencheng suddenly felt that the world seemed to be a man-eating monster.

"When did this happen? How many days have they been ashore? How many people are there? Besides Sun Chengzong, who are the leaders? Is there any reinforcements from other places?" Huang Taiji asked like a bean. If the Ming Dynasty does not come to Songshan Fort, And going to Sancha River really shocked him, and it also made him confused for a while. The shock was because the Ming Dynasty had hidden it from his eyes and ears. However, the Songshan Fort is more than 200 miles away from the Sancha River. It is simply a joke to rescue the Songshan Fort from such a distance.

"Returning to the master, the servant is not sure, I guess it has been several days..." The more he said, the voice of the knight who came to report the news became weaker and weaker, even though he always wanted to raise his voice a little.

"...the Han people went ashore early, it should have been five or six days, and the late ones, it took two or three days... I heard from that tongue that there were as many as [-] to [-] people who went ashore, and the boats transporting people by sea were dispatched. There are thousands of ships, all of them are large ships, and the leader seems to be Sun Chengzong, a Han scholar, and there seems to be a female general named..." The more the speaker spoke, his voice became softer, and his expression became more and more serious. Strange, he also started to speak intermittently, while talking, his face turned bright red, and at the end, before he could finish his shouting, his face suddenly turned gray, his eyes also quickly dimmed, and he collapsed down listlessly. A stream of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

"Daguta?"

"Daguta?..." The people around immediately shouted the knight's name and went to help him.However, it is obvious that this person has lost his life.This man named Daguta was also seriously injured, but he held back his breath and wanted to bring back the news. Now that the news has been brought back, the will that supported him has disappeared, and his energy and energy have also disappeared. As it dissipates, the person dies immediately.

"Great Khan... Daguta..." The guard only checked the situation briefly, and knew that the man was dead and hopeless, so he immediately reported to Huang Taiji.

Huang Taiji's complexion was already like a pig's liver. It was hard for him to accept that a living person died in front of him like this. The horses in the distance that came back with the corpse hadn't gone far, but they could still be seen. Unexpectedly, this time they arrived at home Well, people haven't died enough, one more will die.

"It's a good burial, Youfu..." Huang Taiji squeezed out a few words through his teeth in the calmest voice with a sullen face.

"Cha!..." The guard agreed.

"Sun Chengzong, thousands of boats, 5 to [-] horses... No wonder the contact between Ben Khan and Shengjing will be interrupted. It turns out that this is a cover, a good way... What do you think of Xiandou? Ben Khan doesn't understand, why Want to go ashore on the Sancha River? Could it be that Emperor Ming still wants to beat me up in Shengjing and force me to rescue him?" After dealing with the dead man, Huang Taiji had to start thinking about the news, stimulated by the news and the incident just now, and spoke His voice has changed a lot, like a ghost crawling out of hell, his voice is full of hunger.

"Back to the master..." Fan Wencheng was already dripping with sweat. Just now, he had already figured out the cause and effect of this incident and came to an extremely bad conclusion.

"There is no need to be afraid of Xiandou, just tell the truth..." Huang Taiji comforted Fan Wencheng with that cannibalistic voice.

"Master, it's too late, it's too late..." Fan Wencheng replied, sweating all over his body.

"Oh, why is it too late?" Huang Taiji asked.

"Master, the Han people have been ashore for five or six days now, and they have gained a firm foothold. It's too late, too late..." Fan Wencheng lowered his head and muttered.

"Why is it too late? Why is it too late? Could it be that Emperor Ming thought that Ben Khan would definitely go to Sancha River after landing on the bank of the Sancha River? If Ben Khan doesn't leave, can he not save Songshan Castle? Khan is going to step up his attack on Songshan Fort and let Emperor Ming come to rescue him..." Huang Taiji didn't realize how terrifying his voice was, and he still said in what he thought was a very "gentle" voice.

"Returning to the master, the Han people have been ashore for five or six days now. Even if the master sent the news to Liaoyang quickly, I am afraid that Liaoyang will follow the way of the Han people. The Han people only need to keep teasing me. Lured people to the vicinity of the Sancha River, I, Dajin, will definitely suffer a disastrous defeat... Once my Dajin suffers a disastrous defeat at the Sancha River, the master will not be able to go to the Sancha River, and the Ming Dynasty will do it..." Fan Wen Cheng quickly figured out the ins and outs of the matter. First of all, he cut off the news and let Shengjing, Liaoyang and Huang Taiji lose contact. Sending people over to investigate, those people who are investigating have been teased by the Ming Dynasty, how can they hold back, even if there is nothing wrong with Huang Taiji, Liaoyang and Shengjing must be unable to hold back, they must be chasing after. As long as they chase, the consequences are self-evident. Since the Ming Dynasty dared to land on the Sancha River and lead people to the Sancha River, how could it be unprepared?The people who go there are probably more ill-fortune than good luck, and if Dajin loses too much in Sanchahe, can Huang Taiji still sit in Songshan Fort?Huang Taiji can sit still, can people from Liaoyang and Shengjing sit still?Although there is only one big Khan in Dajin, there are still a few Dabeilors who are sitting facing south. Whether the news is delivered or not, it’s hard to say...

"Kangdang..." The binoculars in Huang Taiji's hand suddenly slipped and fell to the ground for some reason.Looking at Huang Taiji's face again, it was as terrifying as dead ashes.

Although Fan Wencheng only said half of what he said, the meaning is already obvious. If he doesn't want to go to Sanchahe, he will go. If he doesn't go, people from Liaoyang and Shengjing will go too. The people from Beijing continued to stay in Songshan Castle, and the people there alone could not deal with the Ming Dynasty troops in Sanchahe. Therefore, he almost had to go, and once he went to Sanchahe, the Songshan Fort is considered a white siege, with so many casualties, it is considered a white death, and he still has to travel a long distance to Sancha River...Huang Taiji is also a smart person. When Fan Wencheng mentioned it a little, he understood that the matter had gone beyond his imagination.He was already completely in the layout of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and he couldn't help himself. He lost the qualification to play chess with others and became a chess piece running around.
